O le Kenya Wildlife Service talu ai nei na amata ona toe siitia muamua 10 saute papaʻe papaʻe mai le Lake Nakuru National Park i le Nairobi National Park, ina ua maeʻa tulaga matelaina i Nakuru. Na faʻafefe foʻi e le KWS e faʻapea e iai isi suiga e ono faia ina ia puipuia ai le rhino i le Lake Nakuru National Park mai aafiaga o le lāmala.
I le amataga o le 1980s, Lake Nakuru National Park na faaliliuina i le atunuu muamua paka sau rhino faasao e puipuia le taimi lena sili lamatia lamatiaga ituaiga ma le pa o le atoa paka na maeʻa ma se faapitoa-fuafuaina eletise pa, lea na fesoasoani i le faia o le rhino faʻatupuina polokalama se lofituina tele manuia. O le mea moni, o le tele o le rhinos ua silia ma le tele o tausaga ua maeʻa toe siʻi atu i isi paka e toe faʻatu ai le rhino faitau aofai ma faʻatagaina fanafanau i le vao.
O le mafai gafatia o Lake Nakuru National Park ua oʻo i ona tapulaʻa, peitaʻi, o se iʻuga o le lāmala, ma le alualu i luma o le faʻatupuina o polokalame i le luasefulu-talu ai tausaga ua faʻaopopoina i le mamafa i luga o le paka le siosiomaga, lea ua leai nei umi mafai ona lagolagoina le tele numera o rhino maua i le paka. O tagata e asiasi i le Nairobi National Park, e naʻo le 10 maila mai le taulaga, o le a faʻamanuiaina i le toe siʻi atu, ona o le a mafai ona latou vaʻaia nisi vaʻa tele pe a fai sina "safari i le taulaga."
OA MEA E AVEA MAI LENEI TUSI:
- The carrying capacity of Lake Nakuru National Park has reached its limits, however, as a result of the drought, and the success of the breeding program over the past twenty-plus years has added to the pressure on the park's ecosystem, which now is no longer able to sustain the large numbers of rhino found in the park.
- In the early 1980s, Lake Nakuru National Park was turned into the country's first park come rhino sanctuary to protect the then highly-endangered species and the fencing of the entire park was completed with a specially-designed electric fence, which helped to make the rhino breeding program an overwhelming success.
- Visitors to the Nairobi National Park, only 10 miles from the city, will be the beneficiaries of the relocation, as they will be able to see quite a few more rhinos when doing a little “safari to the suburbs.
